Information
Plane Dominaria
Part of Terisiare
Later part of Kjeldor and New Argive

The Adarkar Wastes were barren, frozen plains on Ice Age era Terisiare of Dominaria.[1] They took the place of the Great Desert of previous times. While its surface was barren, holes led to numerous chambers and underground villages, though they had also died out by the time of the Invasion.[2]

History

The Wastes were populated by giants, unicorns, yetis and mysterious artificial sentinels. They were located between the Yavimaya River and the Kher Ridges. The great Kjeldoran hero General Jarkeld disappeared in the Adarkar Wastes and is believed to have perished there.

During the Mirage War, Sisay located the Juju Bubble, a piece of The Legacy, in the Wastes.[2] She took the Skyship Weatherlight there, and recovered the artifact after a fight with a mech leftover from the Brothers' War.

A remnant of the Adarkar Wastes still can be found on New Argive.[3]
